How To Build The ULTIMATE Catfish Jugs That Glow In The Dark DYI

[@PoleBenderFishing]

🙈😅 I forgot to mention that you connect the swivel with the hook to the drop line. I figured that y'all would get it but I thought I'd mention it for any newbs.

Nice touch with the screw eye for depth adjustment. Tucker looks like he approves of your knot.

[@PoleBenderFishing]

He or I should say "she" is a spoiled turd. We thought for sure she was gonna be a rooster when she started chest bumping the big turkeys... naw just a tough broad.

I miss jug fishing. We done it when I was younger before my dad passed. Those are great looking. Great tutorial and video Dallas.

[@PoleBenderFishing]

Thanks 👍

Dallas, out of all the things I've ever imagined I'd hear on your channel, I never dreamed it would be "Now you're gonna need a big noodle and not all noodles are created the same". I had to watch that part twice hahaha

[@PoleBenderFishing]

I had a little fun with this one. lol

[@Jaak_the_Belgian]

Dallas, you might want to glue a cork into the pipe end, then cover it with the drilled cap. Then drill the cork (or burn hole with long nail.). This will most deffo improve hold onto the chemlite. BTW, collecting corks can be fun. Oh, a wine-cork has no straight wall, but it straightens when you boil the cork. Just an idea. Kind regards, Jaak.

[@PoleBenderFishing]

I must say it took me a minute to figure out how to get that sucker to stay. It's not like I can just glue it in permanently.

[@Jaak_the_Belgian]

@@PoleBenderFishing He he. I was thinking that if you get the eye-screw out you could perhaps shove some cut to tightly fit insulation thru, so it sits against that cap, and then run a too small drill through the cap. This should also get you better hold onto the chemlite. ( A fitting cork could be used in a new lot. Watta Hail... A cork may not even need glue, and would probably eliminate need of that cap as well. That long chemlite looked 4 or 4.5mm... ( Both sizes are sold ) The corks on my home-made bite indicators hold on to both sizes pretty damn well. As long as you do not make the hole too wide.. ( However... The tape also works, so why bother? ) 🤓

That's pretty neat 👍 I wish everyone used lights on their noodles ,I've driven into a big cove full of noodle jugs in the dark running 30 mph were at least 100 in every color noodle they make 😆.

[@PoleBenderFishing]

That'd be like swimming in a school of Jelly Fish. lol

[@CarlBridgeforth]

I wish I found something like that

[@FreshwaterSouL]

Your design is what I do on my noodles👌.After about a year,The noodles will become very dry from the sun and start breaking apart,What I did was covered them completely with duck tape and I use a small separate piece of duck tape with a sharpie marker and write my information on the tape and stick it to the duck tape on the noodle and pull the small piece of duck tape with information off when done fishing. The glow sticks work very well and I use the large sticks due to the waves on my lake. I cant wait to see your videos with this noodle cause its a blast pulling up a big ol 30lb flatty❤

Hi there. Years ago I fixed some pipe insulation onto a post to let a shed door bump into (no noise, no scratches). This gray stuff has been exposed to weather for years now, and it still does not crumble. It figures that it held up because of intended use. However, I recently found that a spunge (brownish coarse cells) disintegrated when I started to use it. ( It looked new but was years old.) So your warning is spot on for inferior materials. I also use pipe insulation to store surf fishing rigs onto and seal the slit with ducktape so my tacklebits do not get glued into that. (slit stays usable). Insulation used as floating material on dipnet pole got duct-tape covered. (My net does not sink in the drink when both hands are busy fighting a fish. ) In any case, better safe than sorry, so protection can be used. Pipe insulation is made to fit pipe but may have a too thin wall. But one can put bigger diameter over as second layer, and secure it with duct tape. Kind regards, Jaak. (edited for clarity)

[@PoleBenderFishing]

I use duct tape for my tags as well. Hadn't thought of wrapping the jugs though... hmm

[@Jaak_the_Belgian]

@@PoleBenderFishing The "spunge" looked new but was old. 't Was a good thing I did not have a dozen of those. And yes, my long net pole gets a float shoved onto, made of two layers of pipe insulation. FreshWater Soul's comment made tons of sense.

We don't have a boat to follow a jug line. But, pretty good advice on how to make a jug line. Now limb lines, I can do. But a big lake isn't close, and all we can do is fish the river. We have a city lake, but conservation maintains it, but they won't allow you to jug line it. Are we about to get some noodle jug catfishing video? Guess we'll wait and see! Tight lines Dallas!!!!

[@phillippmorris4109]

Hello from the quiet sunnny Ozarks Dallas! another video of value! thanks for sharing. i use black insulation pipe but critters love it too so i will use the pool noodles since their cheaper but they dry out in one season. LOL about noodles comes in different sizes and shapes . Looking forward to using them. i use yoyos alot. tight lines!!

[@phillippmorris4109]

do you know of any small lots 5acres or less close corp of engineers boundy to lake close to theodosia?

[@PoleBenderFishing]

No, not personally. There's still property for sale around but the land rush pretty much bought up all the good plots. A developer is building a +300k subdivision in Diamond City. Insane...

[@hillbillyjimcatfishing2575]

Awesome video much love and tight line's

[@PoleBenderFishing]

Much appreciated!

[@uncleshepsfishing4165]

you can also use a zip tie on the pool noodle

[@PoleBenderFishing]

I've heard of that

Tips from a Pro Jug Liner: 1) Make yours bigger. This size would not work for the size fish we get here in Lake waco at least. I make my poles 2 ft and the float 18 inches (1/3 of the noodle so I get 3 from each). I still get 5 jugs per conduit. Use outdoor electrical plastic conduit. It will not dry rot in the sun for many years. a) The reason the pipe is several inches longer than the float is for two reasons. First it gives you space to adjust the drop length. 2nd it gives you space on the pipe to put your name and address where it will always be visible (this is required in many states, check local law) 2) Those fancy cutters she is using in the video cost about $25. If all you need them for is to cut these pipes one time, just use them in the store and put them back on the shelf. I have done this several times with no issue for store employees. Just keep track of the piece with the bar code and know how many long pieces you started with. 3) Don't use a metal eyelet. There is no reason. Just use a step bit to drill your hole in both sides of the pipe about 1/2 - 1 inch from each end. The step bit will leave a rounded finish on the hole so when you put your string through it, it won't have a sharp edge or a burr to rub against and eventually cut your string. 4) To adjust your depth, you can just use a simple double half hitch knot (THE MOST USEFUL KNOT IN THE WORLD!) around the pipe. 5) You don't need a plastic cap or glue, which alone can double the price per jug. Just drill the holes in each end, then run your string through both send around the noodle. That makes it impossible for the noodle to come off, and all it cost you was an extra 2 feet of string. 6) Check local state law. In Texas we can have up to 5 hooks per jug. I take 20 jugs out. That's 100 hooks in the water. It's impossible not to come home with a bunch of fish. I can get over 100 lbs of filet in a weekend and thats just keeping the best and throwing back everything else.

Just stick the glo stick in top of the foam. It looks tall enough that it will still be seen and might even help the foam glow

Big holes,little holes like my women. 😂😂😂😂😂
